Stroke Rehabilitation

Bellevue Health & Rehabilitation’s specialized stroke rehabilitation program is designed to help restore patients to optimum levels of functionality while helping them compensate for decreased capabilities. Due to the neurological effects of a stroke, in which the ability of patients to perform everyday actions is often severely limited, the rehabilitation process involves teaching a patient how to perform those actions-like speaking, walking, eye-hand coordination, and using the restroom-that were lost during the stroke.

In instances in which full recovery from a stroke might not be possible, certain compensatory strategies will be taught. By regaining greater independence in accomplishing daily tasks, many go on to enjoy a quality of life beyond their expectations.
